Pair of Moss Green Armchairs, Europe Mid-20th Century (sold)
The 20th century was period when some of the most popular and iconic design movements emerged. The Art Deco movement for instance, elevated the status of everyday objects through bold, geometric forms, sleek figures, and material wealth and sophistication. Modernism, on the other hand, emphasised clean lines, simple shapes and organic materials to achieve functionality. Both movements dominated the design world with their popularity, and influenced the creation of many pieces, like these armchairs.
These luxurious chairs embody elegance and comfort in equal measure. With their soft curves, they cradle the sitter in a harmonious and just as stylish embrace. The chairs’ plush, generously padded bodies provide a great level of comfort, making them ideal for prolonged periods of use. The dark green upholstery adds an extra dimension of classic sophistication to the aesthetic. This fabric choice introduces texture that highlights the tailored craftsmanship while also adding depth to the plush bodies. Their silhouette is both structured and approachable, with a simplicity that showcases their timeless appeal.
These armchairs will effortlessly elevate any space and add much sought-after cosiness. With their craftsmanship, impeccable detailing, and natural colour palette, this pair seamlessly integrates form and function, representing a statement of mid-century design.

The mid 1950s in Italy were marked by a new softness in modern furniture. Designers began shifting away from the strict rationalism of the postwar years and toward interiors shaped through comfort and tactility. Lenzi worked inside that transition. Their production merged clarity of proportion with upholstered volume. The result was a kind of modernism that felt warm, human, and atmospheric rather than merely functional.
This armchair features a curved back, low arms, and deep seat all flowing into one continuous shape, to create a soft envelope around the sitter. Upholstered in a rich olive green textile with a subtle pile, the chair gains depth through texture rather than pattern. The fabric reads almost like moss, perfectly natural and comforting. The seat is anchored by four slender brass legs that angle outward with quiet poise. Their gleam has just enough presence to complement the body above without drawing excess attention to themselves. The upper part of the chairs feels steady and welcoming, while the slender metal below introduces air and lightness. Every contour and proportion has been judged toward an overall calm. This chair is the perfect example of great attention to detail mixed with skilled cabinetmaking.
This model speaks to a moment when Italian modernism was not purely decorative, nor austere, but refined in its ability to create atmosphere. They remain compelling examples of Lenzi's charming yet timeless design approach.

Art Deco was a movement characterised by geometric shapes, rich materials and luxurious aesthetics, with furniture designers placing particular emphasis on craftsmanship and distinctive silhouettes. This pair of chairs exemplifies why works from the first half of the 20th century are often considered a visual connection between the innovative Art Deco movement and European modern design after the Second World War. The design of this pair is a unique yet immediately recognisable aesthetic based on graceful curves, carefully chosen materials and practical construction.
The armchairs immediately catche the eye with their bold outline, defined by the elegantly curved wooden arms that continue down into the front legs. The exposed wooden frames contrast beautifully with the thick upholstered seats and backs, creating a balanced combination of straight and rounded forms. Each chair has a generously padded seat and a tall backrest with an arched top, upholstered in a muted rose-coloured fabric. The fabric's rich tone complements the warmth of the wood. The backs and seats are outlined with subtle piping, adding another level of visual interest to the pieces. What really sets this pair apart is the adjustable construction of the backrests. The exposed mechanisms allow the backs to change position, while the horizontal wooden supports visible behind the upholstery introduce an interesting architectural element to the design. The obvious quality of the craftsmanship complements the design through the choice of materials, techniques and well-thought-out details.
Created during an age of innovation in materials, shapes and techniques, these chairs showcase the European furniture designers' artistic approach to combining comfort with distinctive forms. Their adjustable backrests add a practical quality that makes them particularly suitable for a living room, library or reading area, while their proportions invite relaxed seating. Exuding warmth and vintage charm, the armchairs can complete a variety of interiors while being visually captivating.

Bas van Pelt (1900–1945) was a Dutch furniture and interior designer whose work combined traditional craftsmanship with the principles of early modernism. While Van Pelt's creative work was primarily dominated by the Hague School, this armchair is the result of his more mature design period, characterised by natural materials, in order to create a friendly and inviting appearance that combines the warmth of solid oak with the distinctive texture of woven rush.
The construction of this model is simple at its core, but thanks to certain details, it is a playful representation of early Dutch modernism. While made of solid oak, this armchair has an open feel to it thanks to the horizontal spaces on the back that divide the three rush panels. The tall, slightly inclined backrest is framed by two straight wooden uprights, creating a strong vertical outline that contrasts with the more fluid shape of the armrests. The curved lines of the arms contrast nicely with the straight lines of the frame and clearly show wonderful craftsmanship. Each armrest extends outward in a gentle wave, giving the chair a particularly individual character. The rush weaving on the back adds textural interest, bringing the appealing roughness of nature to the design. Its closely arranged vertical strands create a warm, sandy surface, beautifully complemented by the oak's rich brown colour and the similar tone of the upholstery. The legs and stretchers are simple in their design, serving a primarily structural role and allowing the rush weaving and the wooden construction to stand out. The legs are connected by a gently curved wooden rail beneath the seat, while the rear supports continue naturally from the backrest. Thanks to the well-chosen proportions and the combination of natural materials, this armchair provides great comfort while maintaining a remarkable appearance.
Bas van Pelt's progressive designs were, in many ways, ahead of his time. The Dordrecht-born designer's furniture models are quite rare, with examples preserved in the collection of the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. Furniture pieces like this easy chair stand out through their unique textures and materials, as well as their classic charm. Its generous backrest and comfortable seat make it particularly suitable for a living room, library or reading area, where the craftsmanship can be appreciated from every angle.

This sofa reflects the quiet confidence of Scandinavian design from circa 1930s, a period when modern ideas were being absorbed into more traditional forms. Swedish furniture of this era often balanced restraint with comfort, favouring clean silhouettes. Rather than chasing novelty, designers focused on proportion, usability, and longevity.
Curved sofas in general are considered statement pieces, for reasons that are eminently present in this three-seater sofa. With its classic shape paired with modern design, the generous size and fully upholstered body, it is outstanding, even when measured to the many beautiful sofas created in Sweden during the first half of the 20th century. The large, curved backrest follows the curve of the voluptuous seat, creating an inviting and open look. This shape is referred to as the ‘banana’ in furniture design, and is perfect to bring people closer together. The armrests are not independent, but rather a continuation of the back. The solid wooden legs provide perfect stability and visual appeal to the upholstered body, while balancing the sizeable body. Wood is the most important material in Swedish mid-century design, and the luxurious upholstery highlights and complements the beautiful colour of the wood.
Free from unnecessary ornamentation, the aesthetic of this three-seater sofa is sleek, elegant and modern. With its curved shape, it is perfect to break the rigour of any space, keeping the elegant appearance, elevated by the warm toned upholstery.

These chairs were created by Asko, the Finnish furniture manufacturing company founded in 1918 by Aukusti Asko Avonius, known for the production of high-quality furniture. By 1930, the company had grown to be the largest furniture chain in Finland and the largest supplier of furniture in the Nordic countries. This pair of Model “217” or “Continent” armchairs belongs to this period of Finnish furniture design, combining the generous comfort of traditional upholstered seating with a more restrained and modern appearance.
These armchairs embody comfort and elegance in equal measure. With their soft curves and rounded bodies, they cradle the sitter in a harmonious and just as stylish embrace. The defining feature of these lounge chairs is their enveloping design, which creates a sense of cosy intimacy and warmth. Each chair has a broad, rounded backrest that curves forward at the sides into the upholstered arms. The soft curves that define their shape not only evoke inviting comfort but also serve a practical purpose, as the curvature follows the natural contours of the human body. The chairs appear open and welcoming thanks to the arms and backs curving outwards, while the deep seats and generous padding emphasise their comfortable character. The soft outline of the design remains clearly defined, enhanced by the dark moss-green upholstery. The fabric has a rich, textured surface that accentuates the gentle curves and gives the chairs a warm, inviting appearance. The seats extend forward between the rounded arms, with their upholstered fronts creating a uniform image. Short wooden legs support the chairs, their warm brown colour contrasting beautifully with the green fabric. In the absence of additional ornamentation, the focus stays on the distinctive shape, supported by functionality and comfort.
As part of Asko's furniture production, the model “217” represents an interesting chapter in the development of modern seating. With their cosy appearance, distinctive bodies and appealing material combination, the armchairs bring warmth and character to an interior while retaining the comfort and practicality for which they were designed.

Simplicity, functionality, and elegance - these are the basic aspects of Danish design and accordingly, of this sophisticated easy chair as well. As a representation of early modernist seating, there is a profound focus on comfort and cosiness, that invokes a pleasant homelike feeling.
The subtle decorative qualities stemming from the early 20th century art movements and the simple lines deriving from the inter-war art movements gives the chair its elegance. Even though Scandinavian design is generally democratic and meant for the masses, pieces were not stripped of all beauty in order to make them as easy to use as possible. The importance of this balance can be identified in the design and execution of these armchairs as well. This balance is achieved through the clever use of the materials and rounded edges of the upholstered body. The exposed wood outlining the armrests’ shape is the standout design element. Quality craftsmanship was evidently of optimum importance for the cabinetmaker who created this piece, especially visible in the sculpted armrests. The pairing of the bun feet in the front and the short, tapered legs in the back is a quirky Scandinavian detail that adds more visual interest to this model.
This armchair further illustrates how modernist design can be warm and cosy despite its reputation of often cold simplicity. The elegant light wool upholstery highlights the beautiful wood lines of the armrests and the legs. With a classic look, storied design and solid quality, this chair is truly soulful and timeless.

Club chairs, often recognised by their deep seats, sleek lines and wide armrests, originated in French gentlemen’s clubs in the early 20th century. They were created for cosiness and relaxation, typically featuring full-body upholstery and sturdy frames that allowed for comfortable seating over extended periods of time. Attributed to Jean Saint-Georges, this pair reflects the rich history of the club chair while introducing the simpler forms associated with mid-century modernism.
These chairs each feature a strikingly voluptuous body, combining both comfort and bold aesthetics. The chairs' plushness and generously rounded arms provide an inviting and enveloping seating experience. Each armchair has a broad, deep seat framed by substantial upholstered sides that curve gently around the front. The armrests are particularly distinctive, with their softly rolled upper edges continuing towards the backrests in a smooth, uninterrupted line. The backs are wide, with separate upholstered cushions providing additional support and comfort. The low, wide seats emphasise a relaxed posture, making the chairs perfect for lounging and unwinding. The upholstery is a beautiful muted blue fabric with a soft, textured surface that accentuates the gentle curves and generous proportions of the chairs. Its uniform colour allows the shape of the bodies to remain the focus of the design. The seats are fitted with thick, rectangular cushions, while subtle piping along the edges defines the different upholstered sections. Short wooden feet remain mostly concealed beneath the chairs, subtly lifting their substantial bodies from the floor.
The curves and material choice make this a striking pair that can bring warmth and character to a variety of interiors, from a comfortable living room to a more formal lounge or library. The chairs' main decorative element is the design itself, combining traditional club chair comfort and European mid-century design, equally captivating and practical.

Ole Wanscher was a leading figure in Danish and Scandinavian design, as was A.J. Iversen. He acquired his skills at the esteemed Det Kongelige Danske Kunstakademi - Billedkunst Skolerne in Copenhagen. Drawing inspiration from human anatomy, Wanscher’s developments influenced the concept of Scandinavian modernism as we know it today, and his contribution to the field is widely acknowledged.
The post-war era, especially the period spanning from 1940 to 1960 resembled the golden age of Danish furniture. This set of dining chairs retains the cherished Danish modernist traits, such as simplicity and functionality, while also reflecting an ongoing precise focus on quality materials and artistry care. The allure of these dining chairs lies in the detailed backrests with the criss-cross design. The structure creates an airy and rhythmic look, further complemented by the legs’ thin figure and slight inward bend aligning perfectly with the flow of the backrest. The upholstered seats are covered in a light, blue fabric that complements the wood’s tone while providing a soft counterpoint to the structure beneath. Every detail, from the gentle sweep of the backrest to the textural contrast between materials, reflects a commitment to harmony and restraint.
The set seamlessly blends traditional precision with modern innovation, where each chair not only serves a functional purpose but also stands as a timeless work of art. With its meticulous attention to detail and premium quality wood, this set is beautiful and harmonious, and would make a charming addition to a variety of interior decor styles.

Christian Krass (1868–1957) was a French cabinetmaker and furniture designer based in Lyon, he became an important figure in the city’s decorative arts during the first half of the 20th century. His work included seating, tables, desks and cabinets, often combining carefully worked woods with the geometric forms and refined materials associated with Art Deco. This armchair, which dates back to circa 1930s, applies Krass’s skill to a compact and elegant seating design.
The armchair is defined by its exposed wooden frame, which combines straight lines with subtle curves. Four tapered legs support the upholstered seat, with the front legs continuing upward to meet the armrests and creating a clear structural outline. The armrests have a particularly interesting shape, extending horizontally into a carved element before turning downward. Their broad wooden surfaces and warm reddish-brown tone contrast with the patterned upholstery while keeping the construction clearly visible. The backrest is generously upholstered and slightly curved, with rounded upper corners that soften the otherwise geometric frame. Its shape follows naturally into the broad seat below, creating comfortable proportions within a relatively compact structure. The green and cream upholstery introduces a small repeating geometric pattern that complements the straight lines of the wood while adding texture and visual depth. The clean junctions between the legs, seat rails, arms, and back show the quality of the woodworking, with each element contributing equally to the overall composition.
The chair captures the more restrained side of French Art Deco, where decorative effect could be achieved through proportion, material and carefully controlled lines. Its scale makes it particularly suitable as a desk chair, side chair or additional seating in a living room or bedroom. It represents an interesting example of French furniture design from the 1930s.

Mid-century modern furniture introduced new approaches to seating, with designers exploring rounded silhouettes and chairs shaped closely around the sitter. This pair of European armchairs belongs to this direction, combining generous upholstery with a compact profile and short wooden legs.
Their continuous curved bodies give them a particularly soft appearance, while the low seating position creates the relaxed character associated with lounge furniture of the period. The shape of these armchairs creates an inviting and enveloping appearance. Each chair has a broad, deep seat framed by substantial upholstered arms that rise gently towards the backrest. The back is formed as a wide panel with softly rounded upper corners, curving around the sitter before flowing directly into the sides of the chair. This continuous transition between the back and arms is particularly effective when the chairs are viewed from behind, where the upholstery creates an uninterrupted curved silhouette. The olive-green fabric covers the entire body, allowing the proportions and shape to remain the focus of the design. Its textured surface gives the colour additional depth. A rectangular seat cushion sits within the upholstered body to ensure comfort for its user. Four short tapered wooden legs lift each chair just above the floor. Their warm brown tone of the wood provides a restrained contrast to the green upholstery, while their outward angle secures the broad stance of the chairs.
The designer ensured to make these chairs attractive from every direction, allowing the option to be positioned away from a wall and used more freely within a larger seating arrangement. Comfortable, compact and visually distinctive, the pair offers an appealing example of the softer forms found in European mid-century seating.

Art Deco seating from the first half of the 20th century moved towards softer and more streamlined forms, with designers focusing on curved silhouettes, generous proportions and comfort. The club chair was particularly suited to this approach, with its wide sitting area, substantial armrests and fully upholstered body.
The shape of these chairs is generously rounded, creating an inviting and enveloping appearance. The broad seats are framed by the robust armrests that curve outward at the front and continue into the sides of the chairs. Their smooth edges give the bodies a soft profile while still maintaining a clear and structured shape. The backrests are distinctive, formed as large semicircular panels that rise above the arms and create a strong central curve. The light brown upholstery is fitted across the entire body, allowing the shape and proportions to remain the focus of the design. Its warm tone also highlights the curves, as light moves gently across the rounded backs and arms. The seats are wide and deep, while the upholstered bodies create the comfortable, generous character associated with the club chair. Small wooden feet remain mostly concealed beneath the chairs, subtly lifting them from the floor without distracting from their compact volumes.
What makes this pair appealing is the way a familiar club chair is given a more individual character through bold curves. The generous proportions make them well suited to a living room, library or conversation area, either positioned together or used separately within a seating arrangement. The pair offers a strong example of the softer side of European seating design from the first half of the 20th century.

Renowned for their innovative, high-quality furniture, Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron combined elegant form with straightforward functionality to create their distinctive designs. The French duo established their company, Votre Maison, in 1949, working alongside master cabinetmaker Émile Dariosecq, whose workshop was responsible for manufacturing their furniture. Guillerme drew the furniture designs while Chambron played the part of salesman, and together they developed a recognisable style.
This oak armchair from the 1950s visually represents the very reason Votre Maison significantly influenced French design history, combining natural materials with the comfort and craftsmanship associated with the duo's work. The piece features a sculptural oak frame, a hallmark of the duo's style. The wooden structure rests on four sturdy legs, with the front legs extending upwards to support the carefully shaped armrests. The armrests are carved with great precision to serve a double purpose: an aesthetic role and a functional one. The legs are similarly sculpted, with subtle changes in their thickness and shape adding visual interest to the construction. The backrest has an open slatted wooden structure, concealed by a generously upholstered cushion that rises above the seat. The gray back cushion is adorned with tufted buttons arranged in horizontal rows, adding depth to the textured grey upholstery. The thick padding and slightly reclined position provide additional comfort. A broad seat cushion completes the chair, with its upholstered body resting within the oak structure. Like most of their designs, this chair model displays a beautiful contrast between the wooden frame and the elegant fabric. Thanks to the ergonomic curves and thick, comfortable seat and back cushions, this chair is perfect for cosy lounging.
Guillerme et Chambron's work not only represents the fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern design, but also exemplifies the distinctive French mid-century aesthetic they helped shape. Their emphasis on quality craftsmanship and the use of noble materials like oak has left a lasting imprint on the world of furniture making. Whether placed in a living room, library or reading corner, this armchair offers an inviting seating experience while introducing the recognisable character of Votre Maison furniture into an interior.
